1982 Map of Tovar Creek East

About this map

Tovar Creek and San Ambrosia Creek wind through this part of Maverick County, shaping a landscape defined by intermittent water sources and ranching infrastructure. This 1982 provisional survey captures the area's transition into the late 20th century, where traditional land use is evident through numerous named stock tanks such as Coyote Tank, Green Tank, and South Tank. These water features were essential for livestock in the semi-arid South Texas brush country. Evidence of modern accessibility is found in the Landing Strips located in the western portion of the map, likely serving remote ranching operations or private transport. Further south, the drainage of Borrego Creek cuts through the terrain, illustrating the natural watershed patterns of the region before significant modern development altered the rural character of the Maverick County interior.
